Dear Wael,
Is it true that when you remove a snail's shell to see if it would go faster, it actually becomes more sluggish?
Yours faithfully,
Poorblue.

Terrible news. Only knew Gregs through this forum, and he, along with Big Jock and several others, were a massive help through lockdown, keeping everybody's spirits up. Will never forget that.
Thoughts are with all the family. RIP.
Lovely words Jon.

Is the Supporters Club actually fit for purpose any longer?
Surely it was formed to be a club for like minded supporters, to in-turn, support our football club. Is it that any longer? I join, in order to get access to away tickets, the same as I do the helpline, but receive absolutely no communication from them, year on year, not even a reminder or request to join up for the next season, or any invites to AGMs, meetings, events etc. So what do supporters get from it? Absolutely nothing.
It has morphed over the years into a negative, divisive, bunch of egotists, who will do anything within their power to cause rifts, friction, and trouble. And they have the brass neck to call themselves supporters!
How long has this been going on now? How many times do we hear of fall-outs, people thrown out, arguments, lies, members so p***ed off they leave to support other clubs!
They need to be reigned in, and I'm glad that Wael is finally seeing what a sad bunch of negative relics we have 'running' what should be an enjoyable club for supporters. The whole shower should be scrapped, and we should start from scratch, providing a Bristol Rovers Supporters Club we can all be proud of.

'Jaakola has hardly had a single save to make this half'.
'That's cos he's not playing, Keith'.
Loved that bit. Comedy gold. 🤣🤣

Whereabouts is that Gregs?
I’m having a delivery from Henbury Balti House, but might try that next time.

Well said Mead.
I support Bristol, as well as the Gas, and watch a lot of local rugby too, Southmead more than anyone else, as they’re closest. Up there on the line, there are Rovers and City fans watching. All just a bit of a laugh that’s all.

Can’t say this was anything more than a bit of a laugh really.
We’ve had Bristol players that support us too, and I expect they all have a bit of banter between them.
Not a problem. Good to get a mention!

Not quite sure why any Gas would want to listen to, interview, or even be in the same room as this piece of s**t!
(Although probably done on zoom, for social distancing, but you get my drift!)
Each to their own though, be a boring world if we were all the same.

The stupidity of people on this forum beggars belief.
Three games in, against sides in the top six, and fans calling for the manager’s head.
You’re an embarrassment and don’t deserve to support Rovers.

Quick, get out and stockpile some toilet roll, those of you that are so thick you couldn’t find your arse with both hands.

They were in the s**t, it's happened, and they needed help. Nothing to do with expecting someone to bail you out.
After listening to a homeless person's story, you don't refuse to give him money as you didn't like the way he ran his life. You accept that he may have made the wrong choice or choices along the way, and help him anyway. (Well, I hope you do!)

It is no defence of the disgusting greed of the Premier, to suggest that they look after grass roots, and pay more in transfers. The grass roots they look after is purely to benefit themselves in the future.
That's similar to defending Jeff Bezos, or the fact that the world's top ten billionaires have more wealth than 50% of the world's population.
Hereford went out of existence for £50k, and nobody could be bothered to help out. A whole community, and a whole town, was affected. It took a comedian, Omid Djalili, to set up a free gig to raise funds, but sadly, it wasn't enough. Premier players should hang their heads in shame, but they won't, as they couldn't give a sh**.
The Premier is a disgusting, disgraceful, capitalist organisation, that is morally bankrupt, and anybody supporting a Premier side is unfortunately, endorsing its greed.

What a fantastic idea.
Whatever the level, to have a Rovers Academy presence in London is very forward thinking. Not sure many in the EFL would have such a set-up.

I’ve just had that too Topper.
If you accept the ifollow code, which saves you a tenner a match, you forfeit getting a refund, in my case, in the East Stand, around £18 per game.
Call me old fashioned, but I’ve a feeling I’d be coming off second best in that deal!

You’ve missed a good signing Strange.
Just don’t mention his colour, size, shape, tattoos, hair, clothes, or any other distinguishing features. There are some sensitive souls on here.

Giving up before the season has started?! You're not Rovers.

This doesn't even deserve a response. What a bunch of clueless idiots.
